Transmission Fault Message 2002 S-Type 4.0L Engine

[bobK]

Gentlemen;
I recently bought a 2002 S-Type 4.0L with 130,000 miles. Have replaced Cat Converter. Have replaced transmission filter and fluid. Still get "Transmission Fault" message ONLY after car has warmed up NOT after a certain number of miles. Also there is a vertical AMBER bar to the left of the message that is lit when the message occurs.
Also the engine symbol is lit to the left of the amber bar which sometimes flashes.
1) Does anyone have an idea as to what the cause of the fault is?
2) What does the vertical bar mean?
3) The Spark Plugs need replaced. What is the best brand?
4) Where to buy Valve Cover Gaskets & Spark Plug Seals?
5) Where to buy the smaller (most rear-ward) lower control arm bushing (I already purchased the larger front-most bushing from Auto Parts Warehouse) ?
Thank You for your help

I haven't seen those sold separate..... your best bet is to try to find similar bushings at large parts shop (would be nice if you can press lower control arm(front) rear bushings and take with you to the car parts shop so that the guys can measure etc).

Bob, where are you based?

I am based in Pittsburgh, PA.
In your opinion where would I pursue EXPERT knowledge on the transmission?
Should I buy the Repair CD's? Where is the best place to get them?
Thanks!!!
